I think to understand how and why the media presents the news the way they do can come down to one thing. Corporate ownership. The majority of the news media outlets are owned by huge corporations . The way the news reported by these groups has been censored is due to the fact that they answer to their stockholders and advertisers. The spin of news reports reflects that.
The BBC is a well respected news organization in England. I think it's still independent. Their news reports are different than what's presented by American media.
It's an unfortunate fact that women and children in warring countries have an increased opportunity to have harm done to them. I'm not discounting the men in these countries but the tangent in this thread is toward women.
Until men are held accountable for their actions around the world with an increased set of consequences. Violence against women and children will continue to occur in our neighborhoods as well as world wide.
